Something similar happened to the brother of a childhood acquatance.(OK, OK it was an “older” girl, and I though she was HOT). But anyway, he fell off a ladder onto a flag pole at Scout Camp, impaling himself on the pole. When I met him he had an impressive scar, and some muscles in need of rehab. In fact, that’s why I met him, we were taking him to the public pool for some Physical Therapy. He had a hard time getting in and out of the water, but once there, did fine.

My younger sister lived in Greece for a while with her Greek boyfriend's family. Multiple generations lived in the same building, and would add on another floor as needed. In the village she was in, she said many building roofs had rebar sticking up and were unfinished in case they wanted to add on another floor in the future.
